| firefighter | Good Morning. I have two Lubuntu 16.04 computers that I love. Something happened on one to break my Graphics programs. | 14:59 |
| firefighter | Blender, FreeCAD and OpenSCAD | 15:00 |
| firefighter | all broke... | 15:00 |
| firefighter | Running Blender from the menu, crashes on start. | 15:00 |
| firefighter | Running Blender in a terminal, as a user it crashes. | 15:00 |
| firefighter | Running Blender in a terminal, as root it runs fine. | 15:00 |
| firefighter | Running FreeCAD from the menu or terminal works but crashes when I open a file. | 15:00 |
| firefighter | Running OpenSCAD works but it will not Render or Preview. | 15:01 |
| firefighter | There must have been an update or something to affect the graphics on all three. | 15:01 |
| firefighter | Any help or guidance you can offer, would be appreciated. I need these programs for my work and am not sure how to troubleshoot. | 15:03 |
| firefighter | Have been searching for a couple days. | 15:05 |

| seeker43 | Any suggestions for using mini.iso to install on old Pentium II? (Dell Inspiron 7000) | 19:22 |
| seeker43 | Installer comes up, but "install" hangs. Tried various "noapic" etc options with no luck | 19:22 |
| tojoko | hi | 20:10 |
| Fr_Dae | seeker43 CD/DVD with Lubuntu 16.04 of LxDebian | 20:13 |
| Fr_Dae | try with acpi=off | 20:14 |
| Fr_Dae | (push "e" on install / try menu, and add juste before quiet) | 20:15 |
| tojoko | wb Fr_Dae , i got trouble too ;) | 20:31 |
| Fr_Dae | hi | 20:31 |
| tojoko | i got ubuntu installed and lubuntu on an sd card, that couldn't boot. i tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromSD and now none of them boots. | 20:33 |
| tojoko | it only tells me plymouth-upstart-bridge ... | 20:33 |
| tojoko | i think i give up now. | 20:34 |
| lynorian | tojoko, it might be your computer does not support booting from sd | 20:40 |
| lynorian | tojoko, does bios see sd as a boot device | 20:40 |
| tojoko | no, thanks for the hint, that is why i tested the manual - but i ruined my linux on the hdd as well! :( | 20:42 |
| tojoko | and i got no idea, but reactivatin' an old computer on sunday, since that one won't but up anymore. | 20:43 |
| seeker43 | Thanks Fr_Dae. In all cases, it hangs for several minutes at loading initrd.gz... and then gets a kernel panic that scolls off screen | 21:46 |
| seeker43 | Among early lines I can see, at 3 seconds it says switched to clocksource tsc | 21:48 |
| seeker43 | Then at 9 seconds: RAMDISK: incomplete write (32312 != 32768) | 21:49 |
| seeker43 | Not sure why so few seconds when several minutes have elapsed | 21:49 |
| cliffer | hi i just installed lubuntu on 2 machines (x64, lvm, crypt and x86, normal) and both are giving the error: installation of grub bootloader failed | 21:53 |
| cliffer | should i better try 16.04 instead of 16.10? or any suggestions? | 21:54 |
| cliffer | also, no buttons work... no choose device, no abort installation, no continue without grub | 21:54 |
| tojoko | yes, 16.04 is always the better choice - but won't help you i'm afraid to fix that certain problem. | 21:57 |
| tojoko | does grub show up at all? | 21:57 |
| tojoko | sorry, never had that problem. | 21:57 |
| cliffer | it happens on the end of the installation screen | 21:58 |
| cliffer | i tried to shut down and reboot using a usb stick and choosing the option "boot first hard drive" | 21:58 |
| cliffer | but no success | 21:59 |
| tojoko | ok. weird. is there anything on those computers? but i found the ubuntu installer unperfect. | 21:59 |
| cliffer | on is a dualboot, the other one has a clean drive | 22:00 |
| tojoko | well, the one with the clean drive i would try to nuke with some other partition software. ultimate boot cd or so and nuke it completely. | 22:02 |
| tojoko | and then try again - the dual boot i don't have any idea. | 22:02 |
| cliffer | i nuked the hardrive before and setup manually lvm and luks | 22:03 |
| cliffer | since the installer is crap | 22:03 |
| tojoko | well, seems to me like that didn't work out well either. | 22:04 |
| cliffer | perhaps the installer is trying to isntall grub on the usb stick i installed from | 22:04 |
| tojoko | no, why should it do that!? | 22:04 |
| cliffer | i got the same error on two computer using completly different harddrive installation methods | 22:05 |
| cliffer | because its crap? :) | 22:05 |
| tojoko | ahh, but, interestin' you mention it - there is a field in the installer where you can / have to choose where to install the bootloader to. i think u can easily miss that one. | 22:05 |
| cliffer | i also had to turn off swap (swapoff -a') before installing with one of the sticks | 22:05 |
| tojoko | no, i wouldn't say it's crap, although the installer ... | 22:05 |
| cliffer | ok lets say it is not perfect :) | 22:06 |
| tojoko | normaly that should not be necessary and i wouldn't call it a good idea either. | 22:06 |
| cliffer | but i was necessary since the installations aborts with an error about insecure swap | 22:07 |
| cliffer | but it was only needed on one of the computers | 22:07 |
| cliffer | i try again with 16.04. | 22:07 |
| seeker43 | Fr_Dae: I booting from CD with 32-bit Ubuntu 16.04 "Xenial Xerus" 48MB mini.iso | 22:08 |
| tojoko | cliffer, check on https://itsfoss.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Installing_Windows8_Ubuntu_2.jpeg - there is a field for the bootloader! | 22:09 |
| cliffer | upon the error, it asked me about choosing a different partition and the right one was choosen so i suppose i selected the right one but i will care on the next try | 22:10 |
| tojoko | fine | 22:13 |
| seeker43 | ~22 minutes(!) elapses between "loading initrd.gz..." and screen clear/log messages scrolling off | 22:37 |
| tojoko | seeker43, not bad - i had never been so patiened, i guess. | 23:09 |
